Check-In Post August 10th 2021

Hello to all members, and welcome to our regular daily check-in post. Just leave a comment below to let us know how your current projects are progressing, or even if they're not.

Checking in is NOT compulsory, check in as often or as seldom as you want, this community isn't about pressure it's about encouragement, motivation, and support. Crafting is meant to be fun, and what's more fun than sharing achievements and seeing the wonderful things everyone else is creating?

There may also occasionally be questions, but again you don't have to answer them, they're just a way of getting to know each other a bit better.


Today's Question: No question today.


If anyone has any questions of their own about the community, or suggestions for tags, questions to be asked on the check-in posts, or if anyone is interested in playing check-in host for a week here on the community, which would entail putting up the daily check-in posts and responding to comments, go to the Questions & Suggestions post and leave a comment.

I now declare this Check-In OPEN!

Hello *waves*

I know how busy you get (especially now with the house as well), and check-ins here are for when people feel like it / have time / have something they want to show off / whatever. Just drop in and out whenever you can.

Yay for finishing your cross stitch! Also well done for getting some cards done as well.

Hope you can find a design you like enough to spend months stitching. I wish I could find the time and energy to start one of the many big kits I've got. There always seems to be something else to do though. *sigh*

Yes, I'm a bit over the house organising. With all the rolling lockdowns we've been having all I can do is browse the internet which isn't great for buying furnishings. I want to see and feel, so it's all a little frustrating. I've looked at every online store a dozen times. All I can do is gather ideas for a preferred style, but all that could change if I saw something in a store that looked nice. I suspect it's going to take a long time if we can't go to shops.

Yes, I imagine that would make things extra difficult. Still, as long as you have the basics, other things can wait until you can find exactly what you want and try it out. Always best to see before you buy if at all possible.
